HELSINKI, FINLAND and CHAPEL HILL, NC – Ellie.ai, the first AI-assisted data modeling platform for enterprise data teams, and CData Software (“CData”), a leading provider of data connectivity solutions, today announced a strategic partnership that enhances data integration for Ellie customers.
Through this partnership, Ellie users will gain access to CData’s cloud-based data connectivity service that’s integrated directly into the Ellie.ai platform, giving customers effortless connectivity to hundreds of data sources.

Key Benefits of the Partnership:
- Expanded Data Connectivity: Ellie customers can now integrate with more than 160+ data sources, including popular SaaS applications and cloud platforms.
- Faster Data Modeling: Direct access to live data allows Ellie users to design and refine data models with real-time connections to source systems.
- Reduced Complexity: No-code integration simplifies workflows, enabling data teams to focus on data product development, rather than IT bottlenecks.
- Seamless User Experience: Ellie’s AI-assisted features, combined with direct access to source systems, accelerate data discovery and AI-augmented data modeling.
“We’re revolutionizing data modeling and collaboration between IT and business users when building data products. Our mission is to drastically reduce the traditionally high failure rate in data and analytics projects and to eliminate re-work due to lack of common understanding of needs,” said Sami Hero, CEO of Ellie.ai. “With the help of CData, we can radically reduce the time to market when it comes to creating models that are easy to understand, reflect reality and scale with the needs of the business.”
“By embedding access to CData’s connectors in their platform, Ellie.ai has transferred the burden of building and maintaining connectors to us, so they can turn their full attention to product innovation. Now, Ellie customers can build and scale enterprise data models with greater efficiency—eliminating integration challenges and accelerating time to insight,” said Manish Patel, CPO at CData Software. “Through CData’s unified metadata layer–which harmonizes how data is organized and accessed across all sources–analytics engineers can find, query, and work with data without worrying about different formats or structures, enhancing Ellie.ai’s business intelligence capabilities.”
